The monkeys have too many bananas, we broke the system
And by tax, we mean their actual wealth, not whatever pennies they give themselves each year as a "salary".
I am bad at math, but I would love someone to do the math and figure out how many thousands of dollars would have to be on the ground for it to be worth the time of Musk or Bezos or Zuckerberg to pick up.
I mean they'd actually get into a brawl over a penny, but that's a whole other issue.
There actually was something many years back called the 'too small a bill for Bill' index. The idea was that if it took roughly 4 seconds to pick up money off the ground but he stopped gaining money for that time, what was the smallest amount Bill Gates would stop to grab. The last I saw it was about $4,000 but having a time trying to find it now.
Would be good.
Axe the rich
You could take all the money of all billionaires.. that would cover government expenses for about half a year. The state doesn't have a revenue problem, it has a spending problem.
